I don't care whether it consists of 5 notes or 50; whether it uses this scale or that one. Like most Blues players I know nothing about music theory. All I know is that it sounds better than anything else.

taking musical taste OUT OF IT
the most skilled guitarists of all time (Hendrix, Clapton,SRV, B.B.king,Jimmy Page, etc)
are deemed so because of their ability to play the blues. Because it was the original genre of solo guitar, it is THE standard for determining skill.
THEREFORE it is surely NOT just playing a couple scales over and over.
It is so unbelievably complex that its a true test of ability.

This is one of my favorites of Eric Clapton! Seeing him live is really a treat, he just plays brilliantly, soulfully! Captures the true heart of the song, isn't that what the Blues is all about? This one is a good as the version on 24 Nights - recorded in 1990-1991 at the RAH.

What is that White Fender he plays most of his hard core blues on? It looks like a Olympic white 50's or early 60's??? Sounds like a giant MONSTER!!!!!

It's a 1994 Fender Stratocaster Eric Clapton Signature Model (Olympic White) , that he used onstage during the 90's blues tours. It was sold at the Crossroads Center Auction for 50 000$.
